Roadmap

The story so far — and where we're going.

PourCost is built by bar managers who were tired of flying blind. Here's the arc: what's already in your hands, what we're launching, and where we're taking this.

  1. Where we startedLive

    The original PourCost.

    The first version of PourCost has been in the App Store for years — a simple, reliable pour-cost calculator that tens of thousands of bartenders still rely on. It's the proof the idea works. It's also due for a serious upgrade.

    • Original iOS app, live and still in use
    • Proven the core pour-cost calculator bartenders actually want
  2. Launching May 2026You are here

    PourCost v2 — still free, finally modern.

    A ground-up rebuild of the app that started it all. The calculator you know, plus a proper menu builder and a fresh look. Free, like it's always been — but a tool you'd actually want to use every shift.

    • Completely rebuilt for modern phones and tablets
    • Build a full cocktail menu, not just one-off calculations
    • Clean, modern interface designed for behind-the-bar use
    • Still free — no paywall on the core calculator
  3. Coming after launchComing next

    The tools a real bar program needs.

    Once v2 is in operators' hands, we turn on the features bar managers have been asking for. This is where PourCost grows from calculator to co-pilot.

    • Snap an invoice, costs update themselves
    • Prep recipes and batched cocktails with automatic cost roll-ups
    • Staff training guides and quizzes built from your own menu
    • A full-featured web app for the back-office work
  4. Coming nextOn the horizon

    Connected to everything else you run.

    Your POS, your accountant, your suppliers — they all hold pieces of the story. We'll bring them into PourCost so the numbers stay honest without anyone typing them twice.

    • Accounting integrations so month-end stops being a scramble
    • POS sync for real sales and real variance, not guesses
    • Ordering and reordering that knows when you're running low
    • Predictive insights on pricing, mix, and depletion
  5. On the horizonOn the horizon

    Built for groups and chains.

    When you're running more than one venue, consistency is everything. The final chapter of the roadmap is about giving multi-unit operators the control room they've been missing.

    • Push recipes and prices to every location at once
    • Roll up pour cost and performance across your whole portfolio
    • Enterprise-grade permissions, SSO, and reporting
